Just found this site today, and I've been reading through a lot of the topics of the get rich quick training courses. Thanks for the warnings, wishing I hadn't emailed computeach now.

I would really like to get into computer programming for both better career prospects and to play around with my own projects and ideas. I've just learnt the very simplistic Dreamweaver in the last month and I'm looking into learning sql-databases for the fun of it.

From what I've read, self-learning is probably the right way for me to go. Someone mentioned taking exams, how would you go about doing this, Is that at a local Univerisity?

Welcome to CF Steve.

Although i got nothing against training providers you have chosen a good way of learning -self study. Have you done any programming at all in any language? If not then i suggest you go on a taster course at a local uni where they might take you through an introduction to possibly java. Another thing is look at what language you want to specilize in as there are a few out there. SQL isnt all easy work infact whatever language you choose isnt easy so do some research. There are certification too but you need experience more importantly.

hi there,
i'm in your shoes too, looking for some good courses, and self study is a good option, but when i think of certification, i'm not sure how we cna achieve it all alone.
And sql is quite easy to understand, i did learn some of it through online sites, but do not know how to practice what i learnt.
